Have the function StringChallenge(str) read str which will be a string of roman numerals in decreasing order. The numerals being used are: I for 1, V for 5, X for 10, L for 50, C for 100, D for 500 and M for 1000. Your program should return the same number given by str using a smaller set of roman numerals. For example: if str is "LLLXXXVVVV" this is 200, so your program should return CC because this is the shortest way to write 200 using the roman numeral system given above. If a string is given in its shortest form, just return that same string.

It was very detailed interview. They asked for the particular subjectsb such as Network analysis and Digital processing or signal processing and then there are detailed questions on capacitor, transistor, so on and so forth. then the other round is HR round where they discuss and make sure you will joij n the company and not reject them.
